Consider This Important Detail With Tile Or Stone Cladding — DESIGNED

We had Thursday, Friday and Monday off for Spring Break this year and my mother-in-law took our kids to Florida for a week. These days, you just have a lot more option for designing your fireplace mantel and fireplace surround. These will cost far less than a custom-designed fireplace and mantel built on-site. A fireplace remodel that includes real stacked stone is stunning if you are someone who prefers pieces of nature in your home.

The owner opted not to redesign the woodwork and not to use the fireplace due to the expense to remove and re-design the carpentry work. From floor-to-ceiling wall treatments to fireplace surrounds and even new mantel installations, customers can enjoy the hearth of their dreams when they work with us to complete their custom fireplace remodel.

Problem: You have a great fireplace and you want to highlight it as the standout element. We know that figuring out where to start can be the hardest part of a home decor update or remodel. Our Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) -certified chimney and fireplace professionals are expert masons.

If you want to have beautiful carvings around your fireplace you may want to look into the many limestone fireplace designs or stone fireplace designs.

Designer Maria Killam, CMG, used bright orange paint around and over the fireplace here, for a bold look you can easily replicate with any favorite hue. We screwed up lath, a metal mesh for the stucco to stick to – it becomes a part of the stucco, and helps attach the stucco to the fireplace.
